To all intents and purposes, when people speak of globalization, they are referring to corporate globalization, I think. Corporate control of globalization is a very good thing for them, and no doubt generates more wealth than the course Nader proposes, but the wealth doesn't stay where it originates under the corporate model. I suppose if capitalism can be kept running long enough, we might eventually see all boats floated on the rising tide of prosperity, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Nader's model would be slower, but it wouldn't depend on the altruism of corporations for success, either. However, it has no better chance of success than any other proposal I've heard until the critical step of controlling population growth is accomplished.
